Attached is a template to claim an exemption in Florida: http://www.lsgmi.org/downloads/StoppingAFloridaGarnishment.pdf Since the debt is your spouse's your bank account cannot be garnished. Also, if your spouse only relies on social security benefits, that money is exempted. See link so that you may fill out and file. I hope that helped. Please ask any follow-up questions.
